Ching Bling – By Popular Demand
Posted on July 15, 2009 by Ching under Toys, Wishlist.
Okay, so not really by popular demand. Just by Cannady Girl. =P
About three years ago I had to get an upgrade on my bridal set because my fingers got too fat. Well, we could have gotten my rings sized but it would have cost $250 to size both the engagement and wedding bands and solder them together. Supposedly because when they size it up they have to add more Platinum.
Fast forward to 2009. My fingers have gotten fatter still. They don’t carry my bridal set anymore so I had to go with a different style. Now I’m using this three-stone ring as my wedding band.
I really hope I don’t get any fatter because I’m tired of upgrading. I’m beginning to think that the whole upgrading thing was created by jewelry stores to con more money out of you. Like jewelry isn’t marked up enough already.

My friend/coworker Lance recently returned from fishing at Gabbro Lake. It looks beautiful out there. Makes me want to go camping.

Music Theatre of Wichita Presents Miss Saigon
Posted on July 5, 2009 by Ching under Things to Do.
I got the following message from Jimbo recently:
For those of you who don’t know, I was cast this year in the ensemble for Music Theatre of Wichita’s fourth musical of the summer season, MISS SAIGON! This will be my first full-fledged theatrical production since 2002, when I did THE KING AND I, also at Music Theatre of Wichita. I am being flown back to Kansas from New York City for the two weeks of rehearsal and performance, which will be a great break from my hectic life back in the Big Apple!
In any case, tickets to Music Theatre of Wichita, and in particular, MISS SAIGON (which I will be performing in), are available for purchase! And from what I hear, tickets are beginning to sell out quickly! Go to http://www.mtwichita.org for more information!
MISS SAIGON is playing from July 22-26 at Century II Concert Hall. Performances are as follows:
- Wednesday, July 22 – 8PM
- Thursday, July 23 – 8PM
- Friday, July 24 – 8PM
- Saturday, July 25 – 2PM and 8PM

Thanks!

Brian has never seen Miss Saigon, one of my favorites, so I’m thinking of taking him. Anyone else want to go?
Pahabol: Better buy your tickets before they completely sell out! I checked today and all the front-orchestra seating for the Saturday and Sunday shows (matinee and evening) are SOLD OUT. Arrrgggh!
Pahabol Part II: All front-orchestra seating for Friday night are completely SOLD OUT also. Most of the mid-orchestra seats are SOLD OUT as well. Brian and I initially wanted to go at night, but there’s not much left in mid-orchestra. Finally decided to go in the afternoon on July 26, Sunday, because those were the closest middle seats we could find. We got lucky and found four empty seats, amid a sea of SOLD OUT tickets. Looking forward to the show.
